Doing a heaps nice job on this. Have you done many before?
I see you started with nurbs then converted to poly to join everything is that right?

There's nothing normal about normals. In FACT i think the are abnormal.

The trouble with doing something right the first time, is nobody appreciates how difficult it was.

very good poly placement, the cars looking real nice. My only crit is the tire tread which is the same problem I get with cars. it looks to much like truck tires but other then that, the rest is beautiful. Good job

Lamborghini Mucielago

Ferrari Modena 360

I create feeling in others that they themseleves don’t understand.
